JK Rowling might have gotten even deeper into legal trouble with her latest tweet

It’s been almost a full two weeks of radio silence from the Internet’s favorite TERF. But as we know from bitter experience, good things just can’t last.

Today, JK Rowling’s mold overlords told her that she needs to take up the mantle once more and resume tweeting about Algerian boxer and Olympic medalist Imane Khelif, despite Rowling being named in Khelif’s cyberbullying lawsuit.

Rowling’s lawyers are probably tearing their hair out at this development, but they might as well know now that they’re powerless against the evil forces of Big Transphobic Mold.

So what’s Rowling’s problem now, you ask? The same as always. She’s annoyed that Imane Khelif is *checks notes* wearing makeup?

It’s almost as if certain cis women—all of whom happen to be women of color—just can’t do anything to prove to gender expert JK Rowling that they are, in fact, women. Wearing makeup? Not womanly. Being good at sports? Also not womanly. What is womanly, according to JK Rowling? Apparently just…being white?

Rowling’s lawyers are almost certainly losing their minds over this development.

No one is happy about this development. But god forbid a billionaire be SILENCED!

The mold has spoken, the mold has won.

Can’t wait for Khelif to wipe the floor with Rowling after she totally tanks her own case.
